Following the previous week where I found several HP monitors, including two from 2022, that use Innolux AAS panels.
Two HP E22 G4's and one E223 took place of the three ThinkVision T24i-10 for the time being. The panels in the E22 G4 have a more pronounced warm tint that is likened to laptop Innolux AAS panels that I have grown used to. There seems to be a vast difference between Innolux panel revisions from before and after 2020, seemingly getting much better after 2020, as these monitors are from 2022.

Rearranging some things, I set up a Raspberry Pi 3B+ to act as the To-Do list monitor host while the Intel NUC was turned into a NAT router.
I brought the five HP monitors home, forgetting to do so the previous day.

To start working on reorganizing the cable shelf again, I set up an older printer that was inspected earlier to print out labels to be taped to boxes of cables.
With a couple other coworkers, we worked on moving scrap server hardware from wrapped pallets to Gaylords, setting aside anything that is considered valuable by checking completed eBay listings and seeing what sells for consistently over US$100.
At some point, I suggested pulling RAM out of switches and routers, though it is presumably all DDR, DDR2 and DDR3, no longer having much of any resale value. This

After deciding the old HP TN monitor being used for the To-Do list was not going to cut it, mostly due to viewing angles when viewed vertically (portrait). I found the 20" ViewSonic monitor with an Innolux MVA panel that was at my desk previously and had that take place of the HP IPS monitor being used as the secondary screen for the work PC. The HP IPS monitor took place of the HP TN monitor for the To-Do list.
Later on, while working on reorganizing the ever-growing mess of the cable shelf, I was asked to work on inspecting about a hundred USB C laptop docking stations. I had to pull a relatively new (2022) laptop that charges and provides DisplayPort over USB Type-C from an inspected pallet. I tested all of them then added to the spreadsheet At the end, I have counted 114 docking stations.
